The rain falls
I watch it
The drops hold something
I touch one
I feel and replay a memory
I'm sitting on a hill
Under a big tree at sunset
I hear a beat
A beat that is holding me
The warmth comes back
Something slips between my fingers
This memory is alive again
You're here with me
In your arms, I cry tears of joy
I missed you so much
I still remember those nights without you
The days, not being with you
I missed these memories of you
I miss them so much, I cry
I cry at the rain
Because it gives back my memories
As the rain dies,
The sun comes
I smile to the new day
The memories may fade
But, I can make new ones today

A little messy buy very cute. I like the happy ending, don't find many of those these days. The emotion was good in this poem. All in all this was a great write. Thanks for entering.

This is a beautiful piece or work! I liked the different point of view. How we seem drawn into the rain drops memory, and transported through another time. The imagery and flow are amazing! Thankyou for entering my contest, and Good Luck!

A very interesting poem, I love the final line. Memories come and go as we chose to think of them, or they chose for us to think of them. Yet, every day, every moment we live we develope new memories that can take the place of the old or at least take the time the old would otherwise fill. Thank you for entering my contest and good luck.
